Metairie Party Bus Rentals: Fat City, Veterans Boulevard Parades & Lafreniere Park

Quotes we have sent across Louisiana start around $275–$400 an hour, which puts a typical four-hour night at $1,100–$1,625. Your price depends on the date, the city, how many hours you need, the bus and your group size. Hours, the number of pickups, and how far into New Orleans the night goes set the total. A Fat City night with one hotel pickup is simple. Add residential stops across Old Metairie, a French Quarter finish, or a Carnival-night detour around a Veterans Boulevard parade and the time climbs. Parade weekends and prom season are the hardest dates, so compare several written totals early.

Parades roll along Veterans Memorial Boulevard on several days in February or March and close the cross streets for hours, which splits the suburb in two. Keep all your pickups on one side of the route during the parade window, check the schedule for your date, and ask the provider how it prices a detour by way of I-10 or Airline Drive.

Yes, and most Fat City nights end there. The Orleans Parish leg brings narrow Quarter streets, streetcar corridors, and its own Carnival closures, so the driver will drop you on the edge of the Quarter and meet you at a set corner later. List every New Orleans stop with an address so the eastern leg gets priced properly.

Lafreniere Park on Downs Boulevard and the Shrine on Airline on Airline Drive each have their own event parking plans, and a festival inside the park or a full stadium lot can move the pickup away from the main entrance. Ask the driver where group vehicles are meeting that day, and set a landmark the whole group can find after the show.

Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) is just over the Kenner line, usually 10 to 20 minutes from Veterans or Causeway Boulevard depending on I-10 traffic. Share the airline, flight number, and bag count, and ask where the driver meets arriving passengers, since the terminal has a set pickup area for pre-booked vehicles.

That is one of the most common wedding bookings in the area. Give the provider the church or hall, the hotel block along Veterans or Causeway, and the reception address, whether it is Uptown or in the Quarter. They can plan guest loops across the parish line and tell you how long the bus waits through the reception.

The typical request across our Louisiana-area sites is for about 16 to 18 passengers depending on the market, and about 29% are for 21 or more people, which is where a bigger bus or a coach comes in. That is the Louisiana-wide picture, since we do not publish a separate Metairie figure yet; your own headcount is what decides it. Count everyone who is actually getting on, then add room for luggage, coolers, instruments or formalwear. Ask each company for the legal seated capacity of the exact vehicle they're offering. Most Metairie requests are for weddings, bachelor parties, and bachelorette parties, and those nights want different amounts of floor space for the same headcount. A bus rated for twenty seats is not twenty comfortable seats in formalwear.
